Interesting. You suggest that the ODS written by LibreOffice is 
non-standard (as we know, strictly speaking), so that MS Office is not 
able to deal with it. I never thought of that. However I suspect that 
Microsoft does it on purpose in order to give ODF a bad reputation. What 
I don't understand is why Sun's ODF plugin doesn't work. With 75MB to 
play with! Maybe the developers were so occupied with ODT that they 
forgot about ODS.

Cheers, Theo
